Section 3
DC 325
Fill the fuel tank slowly and monitor the fuel
gauge while filling. Once fueling is com-
pleted wash the areas around the fuel fill(s)
to help reduce discoloration of the fiberglass
or striping. Use only the fuel recommended
by the outboard manufacturer; refer to the
engine owner’s manual for additional infor-
mation.
If fuel is added to any other tank by mistake,
DO NOT attempt to pump fuel out; these
systems are not designed to pump fuel. Fuel
must be removed by qualified personnel
only. Fuel in other systems will also require
replacement of that system and/or many
components.
EPA Fuel Fill & Diesel Fill
Fuel Vents
There are two fuel vents for the fuel tanks,
the post side of the hull. While the tank is
being filled, air displaced by the fuel will
escape from the vents. Do not allow fuel to
be expelled from the vents and pollute our
environment. Fill the fuel tanks slowly and
monitor the fuel gauges while filling. Spilled
fuel can be dangerous.
Fuel Filters
Fuel Filters
Fuel filters are located in the mechanical
space under the aft in deck hatch. The filters
are the water separator type and there is
one filter for each engine fuel line. Check
both filters for water frequently to ensure an
adequate supply of clean, dry fuel to the
engines. The filter elements should be
changed once a season.
Turn off all electrical switches before servic-
ing the fuel system and DO NOT drain any
fuel into the bilge. Check all fuel lines and fit-
tings for leaks before and after starting the
engines and after any fuel system service.
Prime fuel system and check all fittings for
leaks before starting the engines.
3.3 Diesel Generator Fuel
System (Optional)
The diesel generator is equipped with a sep-
arate 16-gallon fuel tank. The tank and fuel
filter are located on the port side, amidships
and are accessed by removing the port side
aft facing backrest and poly storage box.
This tank is filled through a deck fill marked
"DIESEL" on the port gunwale. The fuel level
of this tank is read on the center tank of the
engine display.
NOTICE
DO NOT confuse the diesel and gas
fuel fills; severe engine damage will
result.
